Tate and Zial Riggs, he proceeded to Cache Valley, for the purpose of exploring it, and investigating its adaptability to agricultural purposes. After doing this, and reporting returned to favorably, they Tooele, and, winding up business affairs there, came with their families to Caeho Valley, arriving on the site of Wellsville, which they named Maughan Fort, on September 15, 1856, this being the first, colony to settle in Cache Valley for agricultural purposes. Here, for the next few years, William had to undergo all those adventures and privations incident to pioneer life in tbe vicinage of hostile Indians, and here on numberless occasions he exercised that suaviter in modo, for-titin re. which later in life established him as one of the ablest of our local diplomats. Bishop Maughan was of a deeply religions turn of mind and a profound and abiding knowledge of the Gospel was a part of his very being. He was intensely fervid, yet never fanatical. A close student of Mormon . Doctrine, History and Philosophy, he was always ready at a moment's notice to enlarge on those principles which were so dear to his heart and so dear to his intellect He had a natural power of oratory and seldom failed to make the most puissant appeals to the hearts and minds and spirits of his auditors. He was never known to tire an audience and his discourses were always didactic with never the slightest suggestion of pedantry. In any other form of Ecclesiasticism, a man so endowed would have climbed to tbe very summit of Parnassus. In the Mormon system, however, ability and valiant service coupled to an almost fanactical fealty to chnrclly cvcrler.li, are not -- . er the things most taken into consideration, and so for forty faith- ful years and five months, Wil liam H. Maughan waa Bishop of Wellsville. He was ordained a High Priest and set apart as Bishop on November 12, 1859, under the hands of Apostle Orson Hyde and Ezra T. Bensen, and honorably released in April, 19X). Prior to this he had been ordained a Deacon in 1851 by Bishop John Rowberry, and an Elder in June 1854 by Doctor Sprague. Recognition of his long and faithful services, and of his loyalty, noble integrity and unswerving fidelity, came to him but two months ago, when, seated by' his death bed Apostle F. M. Lyman, assisted by Presidents W. 0. Parkinson and C. W. Nib-leordained him to the office of a Patriarch, Apostle Lyman making a special visit to Wellsville for this purpose. In May, 1875, Bishop Maughan responded to a call to perform a mission to Great Britain where he labored successfully In the Sheffield and Birmingham conference, being called by President Jos. F. Smith to preside over the latter conference, which position he filled till July, 1876, when he was honorably released to return home. In 1884, he waa called to act as a director of the Logan Tern pie, a position he filled acceptably till his death. From January 3rd till October 15th, 1889, a period of nine months and twelve days he waa imprisoned in the State Penitentiary as a result of having yielded obedience to the Divine doctrine of the New and Everlasting' Covenant, He had been sentenced to two and a half , year imprisonment, but was subsequently pardoned ' by President Benjamin Harrison. During the trying e z til em mis community self-sacrifici- y, re- turned Thursday morning from Portland, where they spent a couple of weeks in seeing the sights of that city and surrounding country. They had a very pleasant trip on the' whole although two things marred their enjoymeni of it. One was the illness of their son Roy who is employed at Portland, He was very ill during the time his parents were - there, - but recovered before they left. The other thing was an accident to Mr. Kimball. When at American, Falls he ruptured a blood vessel in his nose, and it was feared that he would bleed to death before help could be obtained. By telegraphing ahead to Minidoka a physician was obtained and he soon stopped the flow of( blood. Mr. Kimball was under a doctors care however, for several days after he reached Portland. A terrific and prolonged electrical storm did much damage to the electric light plant at Beaver. Lightning struck several houses and cattle during the prevalence of the storm. , ' - ill-fat- e, BACK FROM THE FAIR - in New York over two months Bishop Maughan is dead!
